Is that an eel the tail pic?
Welcome! Glad you joined.

I found build thread is a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). What you have above is wonderful! You should copy it to the Build Thread area of Forum aka Forum > Members Aquariums and start new thread over there:

This might help you find people local to you in South Carolina:

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

Sorry - might you ask question a different way? I don't understand what you are asking. Or perhaps you meant that question for someone else.

Happy Holidays!

So... bit of an update.
In the process of moving, not far just 13 mins down the road, but i am STRESSING moving my tanks.
Currently have my 90 still, bought a 55 gallon and moved my 35 into the 55 and then i have my 10gallon display qt tank.


So my wife mentioned how i always wanted 125+ and she said now will be the time since we are moving... I was like, you are right, so i bought me a 125. In the process of redoing the stand (sanding and staining) and also resealing the tank. Never resealed a tank before, so wish me luck! I will be sure to post before and after pics as well as the tank once it gets going.

I am definitely taking my time getting this one set up and aquascaped to my liking. I am also wondering about plumbing and using two sumps.
I have my current 40 gallon tsunami im going to bring over into the new tank. Its a 3 compartment, with socks, then UV light with skimmer, then return pump chamber. But i really want a fuge... I have a extra10 gallon i was thinking of making for fuge, really want to have pods in there, mainly for my mandarin.

so im trying to find out how i can do that. the tank has 1 return connection but has two connections coming from the overflow into the tank.
